In the latest episode of the Musicians For Mental Health podcast, I had the profound privilege of speaking with Courtney and Sawyer from Definitely Maybe. Our conversation focused on mental health, with a particular emphasis on Courtney's deeply personal story about her sister Jessica's tragic suicide. Courtney bravely shared the struggles her sister faced, including alcoholism and religious trauma, and the heart-wrenching journey of coping with such a loss. As someone who has experienced similar pain, I also opened up about losing my brother to suicide, discussing the feelings of shame, guilt, and blame that often accompany such tragedies.

Some of this conversation may be triggering to those battling their mental health so please keep that in mind. We are not licensed mental health professionals, councilors, or therapists. We speak only from our own personal experiences and perspectives.
